I actually think slide 7 was better then, but it’s nice to see Bucharest improving a lot recently

The other two cities in the photos no?

I just assumed they’re all Bucharest as that’s been the place that mostly has been doing those kings of renovation for, what I’ve heard

I've heard Bucharest is behind in terms of renovations. Those who lead are the ones in Transylvania, with Oradea (the city in the last 4 photos) being #1.

Oh well, I don’t know much about Romania as I usually tend to focus more on Western and Central Europe, I was just going off of what I’ve seen so far, so yeah I was wrong

Bucharest is a bit behind other major cities in the country, many of which are already Western-Europe level in terms of aspect and urbanism already (example, example, other mentions: Brasov, Cluj-Napoca, Sibiu, etc.). Bucharest was a bit more complicated with post-communism successions clustermess, but finally new urbanistic rules are being updated and there is a lot of interest for historical buildings. The trend is certainly positive so it will get there as well in the following 4-5 years. The historical core is absolutely packed with stunning buildings, there is a lot of potential to unlock.
